Cryptic Message on MFC Social Media - New MFC Logo


Good Times Grimes

Recommended Posts

He looks like he is about to be hit by a train, or Buffy is around the corner.

Nah.

That's one interpretation I guess...

Yes, it's an old design but I think he did well to incorporate it. I also think a version using the 90s demon (from your avatar) would be interesting to see. That was easily my choice of the modern logos.

Cartoon villain about to be hit by the hero's supercharge attack. Keep it simple man, we want kids drawing it on their notebooks.

Well, I guess that logo above would be great for marketing to the kids... stickers for schoolbooks, kids t-shirts, jumpers, beanies etc... but the new logo the club has come up with is ideal for general branding and marketing of the club.

(Retired) UFC fighter Forrest Griffin in town for UFC 193 is on the bandwagon.

Absolutely brilliant....I love it. I will be there tomorrow, hopefully Ronda is also donning an MFC t-shirt. Forrest is the second UFC fighter who has been photographed in MFC apparel, unfortunately the other was Tito :)

Goodness me it was a slap-together, wrong coloured nonsense of kit back then. I mean check out the shades of red between the Guernsey and polo.

Bloody pathetic in hindsight.

Can I please just point out that no matter the colours or logo, the cotton polo will never ever match the polyester jumper.

It is chemically impossible for a synthetic and a natural fabric, let alone when one is woven and one is knitted, to match 100% in colour. Even more so when one is yarn dyed and one is screen printed. Especially vivid colours like red.

Yes you can get it much better than in the above image, but it will never be exactly the same.

Fashion lesson over. Carry on.

At least I can now add chemistry to the list of potential root causes of MFC failure.

That photo is in some dire need of treatment by the Ministry of Truth. There is an unperson ruining it with his nonexistence.

Not to mention that stupid dinky little collar.

Those collars looked absolutely ridiculous. Add in the colour issues (as already mentioned), the terrible and awkwardly placed emblem (I know, I know, some of you liked it), and the ridiculous stars on the back and it really made for an awful guernsey.

It's quite impressive how badly we managed to stuff up a red V on a navy blue jumper.

This version is much better from someone at BigFooty.

It is better.

Demonland should run a competition about how long this version of the logo will last. How many have there been in the last decade?

It will stick around if we win.

Perception of everything at the club is seen within this lens.

Was just looking at the NAB challenge fixture on FB, scrolling down and there it was....our new logo is embarrassing. It hasn't grown on me and I won't be buying any merchandise with it on it. If it wasn't for the secret launch they could have consulted members/fans. I don't mind the lettering and I get the Melbourne branding but the the whole acorn thing doesn't work on any level.

Each to their own.

i think it looks amazing, especially when placed alongside other logos on the Facebook fixture.

Already bought several pieces of merchandise over Christmas.

Members were consulted in a extensive branding and logo survey I completed in 2014.

I suppose you'll never please everyone.

I do find it surprising that the oldest football club in the world decided not to put the year it was established on the logo. 

I know it's all about projecting forward but something so unique surely warrants inclusion. Maybe it can be subtly added in later.

Right next to the trident.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
